Entering payroll expenses after outsourcing payroll

I have Quickbooks Desktop with the payroll option.  Starting in Jan 2020, we were able to outsource payroll.  Is there anyway for me to enter all the various payroll expenses into QB so I can continue to use it to track my organizations spending?  We only have 7 people so I would not mind entering it manually but I can't seem to figure out how.   Is this possible?  Thank you

Entering payroll expenses after outsourcing payroll

Hi there, @NGRN.

 

You'll want to use a journal entry in recording this. Let me guide you how.

 

In your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT):

  1. Go to the Company menu.
  2. Select Make General Journal Entries.
  3. Fill in the details.
  4. Once done, select Save & Close.

Here's an article you can read for more details: Create a journal entry in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

I also recommend getting in touch with your accountant on what accounts to use. Also, we ensure the accuracy of your books after recording this.

 

You might also want to visit our Reports and accounting page to read and learn some best practices in managing your accounting.

 

Know that you can always get back to us if ever you have other concerns or questions. I'd be glad to help you anytime.
